What is Latisse

LATISSE™ solution is a prescription treatment for hypotrichosis used to grow eyelashes, making them longer, thicker and darker. Hypotrichosis is another name for having inadequate or not enough eyelashes.

Latisse is the first and only treatment approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA)
for inadequate or not having enough eyelashes, growing them longer, fuller and darker.

If you haven't already heard, it's the latest eyelash enhancer brought to market by Allergan, the medical giant behind Botox and Juvederm.

Allergan accidentally discovered Latisse during a clinical trial for a known glaucoma treatment called Lumigan. When patients reported that Lumigan had a highly desired side-effect - significantly longer eyelashes - Allergan knew what to do.


	"If you're not happy with the lashes you were born with (and let's face it, many of us aren't) LATISSE™ is a great option that delivers real results. To find out if LATISSE™ is right for you, please consult your doctor. I've seen them firsthand and I truly believe it's going to change the way women see eyes ... one lash at a time."

Data on thinning lashes!
You may be surprised to know that published expert opinions have linked thinning and loss of eyelashes to aging.This finding led Allergan to analyze the photos of a subset of women with inadequate or not enough lashes pooled from three LATISSE® clinical trials. The results revealed that the older women had thinner, shorter and lighter lashes at week 0, compared to the younger women in the trials. The demographic data suggests there may be a downward trend of eyelash fullness, length and darkness as women with inadequate lashes age.

Important Safety Information
If you use/used prescription products for eye pressure problems, use LATISSE® under doctor care. LATISSE® may cause increased brown pigmentation of the colored part of the eye which is likely permanent. Eyelid skin darkening may occur and may be reversible. Only apply at the base of upper lashes. DO NOT APPLY to lower lid. Hair may grow on skin that LATISSE® frequently touches. If you have eye problems/surgery, consult your doctor about use of LATISSE®. Common side effects are itchy and red eyes. If discontinued, lashes gradually return to previous appearance.
